"Hello! I am a dedicated music educator with a Bachelor's degree in Music Education from Southern Adventist University and currently pursuing a Masters in Viola Performance at Columbus State University. My passion for music extends beyond academic achievements into practical experience, having enriched my skills through various Suzuki summer sessions in Dallas and Portland, Oregon. I am certified in Suzuki Early Childhood Education, specializing in teaching students from ages 2 to 5 years old.

My teaching journey encompasses a broad spectrum of experiences, from private lessons to participating in chamber music ensembles and volunteering at summer music camps. I have the privilege of working on the staff of At First Sight Chamber Music Weekend at Southern Adventist University, which has been a rewarding platform for sharing my love for music with others. My teaching philosophy is centered around the belief that music has the power to connect people, strengthening relationships between parents and children. This belief fuels my approach to teaching, where I strive to create a supportive and engaging learning environment for all my students.

What sets me apart is not only my formal education and specialized training but also my commitment to applying these skills in practical settings. Whether through one-on-one lessons, classroom settings, or through music camps, I aim to inspire my students and foster a deep appreciation for music.

In summary, my background in music education, combined with my hands-on experience and personal teaching philosophy, equips me to offer comprehensive and enriching musical learning experiences. I am excited about the opportunity to share my love for music with more students and to contribute to their growth as musicians and individuals." less...
